f4UisAE ,BDyS,

Last winter we were "mad ~ hops"
When Cousin Joe came Into town,
And talked about his stock aud crops,
And played the tirtsome "cDuutty ClOwn.n
We fell ashamad Of him hi, dress,
His speech, hia hands, his awk ward feet
We groaned to hear him, oval, | guess ~
And shuddored when we saw him eat.
But now Ms different, you know;
We close the house, leave town In style,
And go to sec "dear Cousin Joe,n
And live upon the farm awhile.
Those "caowsn now furnish US with cream,
with which new "tateIs' 10 quite well;
We also have Juc's double team
Aud drive about, tremendous swell.
We don't SO much mind sitting down
And eating with our cousin, here,
And somehow he's not such a clown
AS fSmerly very queer
His cotntTy ways no more annoy,
Nor do we thluS him n disgrace;
His company we quite enjoy,
1u fact, the farms u splendid place
Our city neighbors think we 90
To Newport (which we can't affOrd);
Meanwhile we visit Cousin Joe,
And never think to pay our board.
And when the season ends, and we
Have had TO foot no hotel bill,

And say: "Oh, thank you, Joe; we will ~

Excitement in TcNns.

Great excitement has been caused in the

The state Of ChIhuahu ua.

The wonderful mineral wealth Of the
state OF Chihuahua has long been known.
out until recently the incessant raids Of
the hostile Apaches rendered prospecting
| and mining in the distant mountain
ranges too dangerous to be attempted, so
year after year the mineral regions have
remained unexplored. The capture Of
Geronimo and his savage band freed the
country OF the scourge which SO effectually
prevented its development, and no sooner
| wns the fact announced than hun
dreds Of prospectors began to venture
far into the unknown regions to the west
Of the railway line. A new impetus was
given to mining. and now after the lapse
Of year the wonderful results can be
readily seen. .
The whole country locks differently
from what it did year ago, and evidences
OF energy and enterprise are met with on
every side. New mines have been dis
covered and old ones opened up again.
American machinery is arriving on every
train and the crude methods of former
days are giving place to the most i'm
proved systems Of modern times. On the
street il is rare thing to encounter a
man or woman who is not properly
clothed. and even the household utensils
and implements OF labor are generally Of
modern make. A few years ago the rude
cart with its solid wooden wheels was the
only vehicle in use, but today the streets
Of Chihuahua are filled with the best
wagons and carriages Of American manu-
facture.-Cor. Globe Democrat.

The SOLDIER Of Austria

The Austrian army is large and impos-
ing, but its material does not compare
favorably with that OF the English and
German armies, physically or intellectu-
ally, except in some favorite Or select bat
talions. The soldiers OF Austria proper
are superior in appearance, more elegant
and cleanly in dress, and more soldierly
in bearing than those from Bohemia, Hun
gary and other parts Of the Austrian en-
pire, but there is n servile manner about
most of them which must be the result Of
the despotic character Of the government,
rather than good military discipline.
Some soldiers from the Austrian prov
inces are so poorly and cheaply uniformed,
so untidy in person and SO very slouchy
and unsoldierly In carriage and bearing
that "a locker on in Vienna" is obliged
to doubt the military efficiency and sue
cess Of an army composed in part of ma
terial of that character-Col Clark in

We chant with trust, thy praise, and pray: "Oh
be this homes defender;
God bless these hands united!
And bless these hearts thus plightedl
In all their lives NAV they be one, unsevered and
unblichted
Give grace In fullest measure,
Le, duty he pleasure.
And every gift that Fortune .nds accepted as &
treasure
Sunshine and shadows sharing,
Each for the other caring,
And each. with tender heart and true, the other's
burdens bearing.
SO. by thy Spirit guided,
LIES duties all divided,
Nay all its complex choices be by Loves sweet
voice decided.
Q Thus with bright hopes supernal.
Through all life's season vernal,
Nav each receive, for work well done. hol1e
